Music!

Postby Holly Golightly » Saturday 10 May 2003 9:13:34am

Hey, I was wondering if this was jsut me being strange ot what...>?

Do you guys have certain types of music that you like to listen to when reading certain books?

I dont' have one for HP yet, but for instance, Pearl Jam-Jeremy makes me want to read a book by Stpehen King, 'The Eye of the Dragon' whilst the rest of the Ten cd makes me feel like reading the Lord of the Rings series??? And many more!!!

So anyone else, or am I just that wierd!!!

:cat: *hrmm, I think this cat is so cute!*

When I'm studying/reading, I usually listen to classical music. It helps me concentrate and is really relaxing. Lol, Vivaldi usually goes very good with HP. And Bach with LOTR.

I've done that before too Becca!
Your sitting there, writing out an essay, singing along, and next thing you know, you look at your work and you've been writing out the song lyrics... :-?
Not good!!!
